Agree with BoomboxDX, the contests are keeping the bands alive. And if you are trying to get some rare DX, contests are the best time to find them.

Bad operators are going to be bad operators period. Not excusing the LIDS..  >:(

On the other end, also hate the LIDS that QRM during contests. Tuning up, whistling, etc.

From what I've observed many times, if someone starts stepping on your QSO, ignore them and keep going. LIDS have short attention spans especially if they can't get a reaction. They will move on pretty quickly.

Make a recording, get the callsign and send it to the contest organizers. The LID may very well be DQ'ed from the contest.
